And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Thats such a fine yarn. H. Beam Piper rules. Its so sad he had such a strong sense of dignity he did not tell his SF author friend Jerry Pournelle he needed help, because Jerry and I think it was Harkln Ellison, couple others, had set up a fund to help SF writers when they where getting low of funds. I love Space Viking, Little Fuzzy, his bibliography on Col. John S. Mosby Rebel Raider, a smashing tale, is sublime, Uller Uprising, Cosmic Computer -Graveyard of dreams its sequel, Naudsonce, Edge Of The Knife, Time Crime, one of his finest was Kalvin of Otherwhen.
I always think of H. Beam Piper's "Murder in the Gun Room" when you show these pics. Good book.
